You’ll need to take a deep breath, because you’re about to be in for a wild ride if you want this armor. You need to complete all 152 Shrines in order to claim the Ancient Hero’s Aspect. This is the only prerequisite, though it will take a lot of time to complete. We have plenty of guides for the difficult Shrines if you get caught up on anything. It’s also handy to know the connection between Lightroots in the Depths and Shrines.

Once you manage to complete all of the Shrines, you’ll receive a side quest to head to the Temple of Time where you can claim your reward. Make your way to the top of the Temple of Time, where the locked chest awaits in the center of the hall, and open it to receive the armor. You can then equip it as a set.
